Movie Reviews

Irish Independent - 8/10 by Paul WhitingtonIt's a handsome film, soulful but efficient, and Keener and Hannah Gross deliver fine performances.
Sunday Times (UK) - 8/10 by Katy HayesThe film is a beautiful piece of work with a searing truthfulness. Keener plays the parental helplessness with subtle intelligence.
Georgia Straight - 6/10 by Ken EisnerEverything then leads to a "gotcha" ending that feels exploitative rather than illuminating.
NOW Toronto - 6/10 by Susan G. ColeKeener is great as usual, convincingly conveying confusion and grief, and the film is visually intense, its handheld cameras relying on close-ups.
RTÉ (Ireland) - 6/10 by Paddy KehoeAlan Gilsenan's adaptation of Carol Shields' final novel Unless has the delicate touch and the humanity that characterise his documentaries. Yet somehow one is left wanting more.
Film Ireland Magazine - 6/10 by Sarah CullenAs it goes, the conclusion to Unless is too cut-and-dry to offer any lasting commentary regarding homeless issues.
Globe and Mail - 5/10 by Mark MedleyWhat worked in Shields's quiet, contemplative novel about a family in crisis falls flat on screen.
National Post - 4/10 by Chris KnightThe best adaptations stand on their own. Unless, adapted by director Alan Gilsenan from Carol Shields' novel, doesn't stand so much as slowly slide to the ground.
Cinema Scope - 4/10 by Angelo MureddaFailing to articulate the feminist argument that sets the novel apart, if anything does, Gilsenan is instead doggedly loyal to Shields' worst impulses.
